Brand History

Timex were founded as the Waterbury Clock Company in
1854, they originally produced affordable clocks as an
alternative to the European clocks usually
available at the time. In 1877 the company expanded to
selling inexpensive pocketwatches. The first wristwatch was
made when the United States entered into
World War 1, they transformed a small ladies pocketwatch
into a military watch to create one of the earliest
wristwatches. The company picked up the
licence from Walt Disney to produce the famous Micky
Mouse watches, which were an incredible success. The Timex
brand was introduced in 1950 and began to
produce incredibly durable watches, earning the slogan
"Timex - Takes a Licking and Keeps on ticking." The
immensely popular Ironman
watches were originally released in 1984, the range was
popular with US President Clinton who was pictured
wearing this watch during his Presidency.

Stylishly Affordable

Timex watches come in a number of different styles, with
Timex
Originals Watches you can opt for functional digital
watches or beautiful classic stylish quartz watches. As
the slogan says, "it's not original unless it's a Timex!"

Indiglo Technology

Timex introduced Indigo technology into the Ironman
Range in 1992
and it proved so popular that they expanded it to 70% of
the range. The technology uses a electroluminescent display
to light the screen. This feature is
available across
the range in both Timex' quartz watches and digital
watches.

ticking" it's no surprise that their range includes an
